Im searching for a number which has limitless web site traffic or data moved, I have had a lot of host that say &quotunlimited web site traffic&quot plus they finish up cuting me off after i review 10gb it is possible to host which has limitless traffic that actually means it with no catch? I personally use around 1gb each day sometimes pretty much i even told one of these i personally use 1gb each day or even more plus they stated &quotno problem&quot ten days later my account is on hold and im taking a loss again.....I've got a image archive site in case your wondering and that i just have 70mb of space no image has ended 350k

David, you've seen what you'll get by having an &quotunlimited&quot host. Don't search for this. You have already been proven it does not exist. What will get me, is this fact kind of site most likely did not use an excessive amount of CPU assets (the normal reason they enable you to get).

I'm speculating you had been having to pay about $20-$30/mo. Your website simply used more bandwidth that you simply were having to pay for.

P.S. Good sense informs you that there's no such factor as limitless bandwidth so don't search for it. Search for a number which will charge you that which you use. Regrettably, that could be around $150/mo.

This is exactly what my host states....but i'll belive it after i view it.

Bandwidth is the quantity of data, measured in Mb monthly that clients may transfer because of any traffic coming initially from from or likely to the website. Most of the visitors are website traffic (website site visitors) but may also be FTP (file uploads), Anonymous FTP (file downloads), as well as E-mail services. Again, the greater bandwidth permitted, the greater!

Around you'll need.

All customers are permitted for much bandwidth when needed monthly as lengthy his or her submissions are in compliance with this Acceptable Uses Policy. In a nutshell, clients may use an limitless quantity of bandwidth.

No such factor as limitless?

Regrettably, some hosting companies claim that they can present an limitless quantity of traffic. They have to cut-off high traffic, popular websites when their bandwidth runs out. These companies have produced a debate round the &quotunlimited bandwidth&quot claim. We've and then provide limitless bandwidth, without discrimination. How? We've 5 diverse DS-3 connections on our personal network. Not co-situated and getting peering contracts with major service providers let us obtain more bandwidth having a simple mobile call. In a nutshell, there's no such factor as limitless bandwidth on the co-situated network.

Keep surprises away or terms and conditions!

A lot of our clients who make the most of our limitless bandwidth feature push out more than 100 Gb of information every month. We're part of the Bbb On-Line and also the Hosting Company Guild, and it is an Web service provider Check Guaranteed Hosting Company. We will not have had the opportunity to earn these honors when we fooled our clients about offering limitless bandwidth.

Exactly how should we offer limitless bandwidth?

This can be a common concern that people openly address. In the end, and other people for your matter, includes a limited quantity of bandwidth, it is crucial that we get access to more if needed. First, we could increase our bandwidth provided with an easy mobile call. Next, we've 5 diverse DS-3 lines from different service providers, so bandwidth not just can be obtained if needed, but from different sources. Finally, it's statistics which always prevail and reveal that although some clients will finish up consuming a lot more than their fee every month price of bandwidth each month, a massive most of clients don't. Later on, bandwidth continues to obtain cheaper which fits to the advantage.

How can i look for a host that enables 50gb per month all of the ones i see only allow 10-20gb?

[This message continues to be edited by David-1 (edited 07-03-2000).]

ahhhh i lost my password.....

The host i've now im having to pay 30 per month for plus they say &quotunlimited bandwidth&quot others where like 20 per month. My money adopts setup costs from altering host to host lol I personally don't like to pay for 150 per month for any site i do not make to much off it. I am not sure that which you mean about using CPU assets my files tell you a anti-leech cgi script? Im speculating that can take up a lot of CPU knowing my luck......im learing when i go

Do your favor, do not ever bother this 'unlimited' word again becuase it does not EXIST! I don't accept is as true, period.

When you check it out, you'll finish up erased account, charge card condemned large charges, many to state.

If you wish to save your valuable trouble, register having a host which has serious features as well as for grounds of the value money not FREEEEEE stuff!

Again, I'm not going sit here and help you whine about limitless, it nevr exists, would you realize that? Please...

if you would like save trouble, I will help you well be sorry.

That cares

David,

&quotUnlimited bandwidth&quot is among the greatest lies from the hosting industry. It's a lie along with a trick to draw in business and separate people using their money. Companies who use that lie are usually interested in getting good new clients than keeping those they've, a lot of whom are lost inside the first couple of months, when their lies are discovered. You've experienced that top notch.

Some hide an associated factor, cpu usage, and do not disclose it before you exceed the real limits. Heck, some don't let you know about cpu usage in advance even when limitless bandwidth never was pointed out. As is available experienced, some (many actually) hosts aren't above other lies to be able to get the money. Even if you let them know your usage right in advance, they'll lie and say &quotsure, not a problem&quot. After they have your hard earned money, you know what? Problem! They lied (again).

A lot of hosts are just like the worst used vehicle sales staff. Laying is the fundamental character and they'll let you know anything inorder to obtain your hard earned money without any aim of keeping their word. With your people, reimbursement guarantee doesn't have meaning and cannot inspire confidence. It is simply another lie. If you cannot trust the organization, what good is any guarantee? In the end, the only real factor that supports an assurance may be the toughness for the organization behind it.

You can study from you are own encounters and individuals of numerous others and prevent chasing after after limitless bandwidth because it does not exist. Rather, get the best deal for that bandwidth you use and anticipated growth.

Otherwise, you'll keep having to pay for setup charges, getting your bank account suspended, chasing after after an illusion. The choice is yours.

We have seen individuals exact same terms pointed out before, and it ought to be easy to find information about the discussion about the subject.

The entire factor is definitely an illusion and tissue of lies. Here's why:

1. They're while using &quotfocus around the bandwidth trick&quot and keep your attention from the related cpu usage factor.

2. They're while using statement that they'll have more bandwidth having a telephone call to point out it's not necessary to pay for this. They need to pay for this, what exactly enables you to think you will get yours free of charge? They aim to confuse the availability of bandwidth using the having to pay for this.

3. The 100 gb bandwidth customer pointed out is definitely on the devoted or colocated server, not really a shared server. Again, the attached cpu usage is really a restricting factor for bandwidth usage.

They might easily redistribute the unused bandwidth from low usage clients and allot it towards the high usage ones, however their overall description still reeks of deceipt and chicanery.

Is a business you need to conduct business with?

How can i look for a host that enables 50gb per month all of the ones i see only allow 10-20gb?

This is not on an average shared server account. A few of the hosts here caould let you know in case your account might focus on a shared server having a small group of accounts. Otherwise, you are speaking devoted server for your type of usage.

You may consider Cobalt RAQ servers.

Otherwise. the only real solution I'm able to think about would be to split your website right into a couple of different accounts. It might not be economical, though, and can cause more management difficulties.

That anti leech cgi script will make it hard for you personally. Great to ensure that nobody links images, but bad since every image experiences it.

Should you believe your host, you can simply take away the anti-leech cgi and serve the pictures directly. Bandwidth should not matter.

That's, theoretically. Your internet site is just a little to large for any shared server enviroment, a minimum of the actual way it is to establish now. Out of the box, you're pushing it (even without that cgi script).

There just comes a place whenever you can't run sites for $30/mo and i believe you've hit that (a very long time ago, heh).

I can not think about a means you'd do that for under $150. Maybe should you got multiple accounts and separate the website. That *might* work.

Splitting the website might work, however the aggregate cost will probably be over that $30/month. This type of bandwidth will probably need a devoted server (or at best a minimally shared server, knowing somebody that wouldn't mind discussing one along with you taking in all of the bandwidth ).

I'm able to pay 150 per month but all i'm able to find is 300 per month and also over for any devoted server or colocation every one has 1gb or even more space, i'll never use much. I do not need alot space all i want is bandwidth

Dialtone Internet includes a fourth of This summer special for $225. They likewise have a Cobalt RAQ 2 for $200. With all of their servers, you receive 50 gb of bandwidth, and excess is $3 per, a minimal rate.

You are able to perform a glance from them and can uncover they are among the better companies. I selected them for my very own deciated server after much research and analysis, and may attest top notch for their degree of service. I have had my very own server together just below two several weeks and also have been only happy with the service. I had been even known as by them a few days ago to ascertain if I had been pleased with the service, had any queries, etc.

I believe that states a great deal in regards to a company. Their excellent status is well gained and entirely justified.

That dosent seem bad but exactly how differant is really a devoted server from the virtual in seting them up? or perhaps is it exactly the same......I'm not sure much about this at this time im using unix with apache 1.3.3 i've no clue from the differances between each one of these... what is the differance in Linux RedHat 6.1 and what im using now? I have no idea as lengthy when i can run my cgi and employ .htaccess and also have a fast site thats always up it dosen't matter in my experience.

David,

Establishing a devoted server is extremely dissimilar to an online host, specially when it takes you to definitely have understanding of either Linux or WinNT or whatever system you select. It isn't for that beginner or faint-hearted.

Nevertheless, Cobalts are extremely great for beginners, as their control sections administer virtually everything for you personally. And also, since whatever you should get is bandwidth and you are not running any particularly CPU-intensive tasks (e.g. huge CGI scripts like UBB?) (correct me if I am wrong relating to this assumption), then Cobalts might suit you.

You're very, most unlikely to obtain a virtual host which will give you 40-50GB on the site unless of course you've got a decent spread, as well as then you would be having to pay a great deal.

As well as in response to the main difference between Linux RedHat and Apache/Unix :

RedHat is definitely an Operating-system version of Linux, and is easy to create on Linux. However, it doesn't (alone) run an internet site or server. This is where Apache is available in, as it is a totally free server that may operate on nearly any Operating-system (Linux/Unix/WinNT/etc.).

Obviously, Unix may be the large mother from the OSes, and when you learn Linux instructions, you should use *most* of these in Unix (and the other way around).

And so i guess Cobalts could be great for a newbe much like me then. I've no understanding of Linux or WinNT. Will they work nearly as good as the virtual server which i have finally? I am talking about after i have it i can not just upload my files and setup my cgi and become done can one? I've to put it together for my domian and everything right? and that i guess i'm able to have multiple domains by using it? I'd rather not acquire one after which be lost.

Just help

Just like an additional note to David-1 concerning his posting showing the host's reaction to limitless bandwidth where they condition:

All customers are permitted for much bandwidth when needed monthly as lengthy his or her submissions are in compliance with this Acceptable Uses Policy....

I have observed that entire bandwidth statement on a number of hosts as well as those I have thought it was on, their Acceptable Use Policy includes the next:

This statement virtually removes nearly all high bandwidth internet sites.. e.g. serving images and Tunes aren't permitted. As had been pointed out, the cgi accustomed to operate these kinds of sites can also be something which provides the host an &quotout&quot on getting rid of the website using their servers.

When the account may use more than 10GB of bandwidth monthly you're smart to proceed and see what it's you'll need and look for a provider that particularly states their considerations and acquiring something that will effectively serve your articles.

Im just scared that they'll attempt to bill me for that bandwidth i made use of without saying can perform that? It states on the website site that they'll terminat your bank account without warning they'll probly allow me to increase a higher bill then let me know lol.....im fed up with worrying about this im obtaining a devoted server i really hope

David,

A Cobalt RAQ server would most likely be the ideal choice for you personally because the interface is reported to pay for most anything you'd have to do. These kinds of servers ahve some restrictions which make them unacceptable for big amounts of websites, or several rich in cpu usage (like UBB), however they would most likely be perfect for your requirements.

Should you're going having a regular server (Apple architecture server), I actually do have instructions for novices, plus some DI specific information, on my small server site at http://techcellence.net You will probably find it useful.

Make sure to read my adviusories and scenarios. If you possess the readiness and talent to understand, fundamental server management isn't too daunting an activity. However, you have to continue learning. If you're willing, I think you will discover the rewards worth the effort.

David, having a Cobalt RaQ server, you'd have the ability to to virtually anything you must do. Typically, you can easily run.

The only real factor I'd explain, is the fact that that cgi script you utilize might provide the RaQ some trouble. It may be as heavy around the server like a UBB would, and when that's the situation, then many people will explain that the RaQ isn't the best option.

Anything you get, make sure it's enough ram and speed to complete the job.
